Easy Artichoke Bread makes a great snack for game day, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday…or really any day for that matter. This crusty French bread is rich, creamy, and super cheesy or in other words everything you would want an indulgent snack to be! It can be ready in a flash and is perfect for entertaining because it’s made with pre-made ingredients. Whip it up ahead of time or throw it together last minute, either way, this warm and toasty appetizer is sure to be a hit. Yum!!!
Here’s all you’ll need: crusty Fresh bread or baguette loaf, artichoke hearts, bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, garlic cloves, and mozzarella.
First drain and rinse the can of artichoke hearts. Chop into pieces discarding the stems.My favorite part of this recipe is that it combines lots of ready made ingredients so it can be whipped up at a moments notice. More time to entertain your guests and much less mess. Sounds like a winner in my book!
Add the artichokes, breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, and garlic clove to a medium sized bowl. Stir it all up to combine. Of course if you’re using pre-seasoned bread crumbs then you can skip the Italian seasoning. To make life even easier, you could prep this spread ahead of time and refrigerate til ready to use.
Next cut the French bread loaf in half lengthwise. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet with the insides facing up (or spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking). Spread the artichoke mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread.
Then sprinkle cheese over top of the bread and we’re ready to bake! Bake in a 350 degree preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is nice and melty.
Easy Artichoke Bread is best served hot out of the oven. Store leftovers in the fridge…if you’re lucky enough to have any! This one preheats wonderfully in the oven. Heat at 350 degrees until warm. Serve with our One-Pot Lemon Chicken with Orzo or One Pan Skillet Lasagna for a quick and easy meal.
